Nigerian music star Peter Okoye, also known as Mr P, has once again stirred controversy by publicly calling out his brothers, Paul and Jude Okoye, and former label signee Cynthia Morgan, in a heated rant that has reignited long-standing tensions within the Okoye family.
Peter’s outburst was triggered by a recent statement allegedly made by the family’s lawyer, accusing him of lying under oath. Taking to social media, Peter claimed that their publicist was actively working to paint him as dishonest, prompting him to set the record straight.
In a pointed comment, he declared, “I am not May D or Cynthia Morgan,” referencing two artists previously signed to his elder brother Jude’s label, Northside Entertainment, both of whom had public fallouts with the family.
Cynthia Morgan, now known as Madrina, fired back on Instagram, expressing her disappointment in Peter for dragging her name into his feud. She accused him of contributing to the emotional distress she suffered during her time with the Okoyes and said his remark felt like a betrayal.
Peter responded by revealing he had offered Cynthia a contract in 2020—an offer she turned down, allegedly due to being misled about his intentions.
“Sad you rejected the contract I gave you, just because they made you see me as the bad egg. I pray you understand that God has a purpose for everything… It’s never too late to be what you might have been,” he wrote, offering her words of encouragement despite the tension.
Peter didn’t stop there. He leveled fresh allegations against Jude and his wife, claiming she had diverted P-Square’s funds for years while the blame was unfairly shifted to his own wife, Lola Omotayo.
“They made it seem like my wife, Lola, was the problem. Meanwhile, it was Jude’s wife who diverted P-Square’s proceeds for years. Imagine if it were my wife—the media would have dragged her endlessly,” he wrote.
He further alleged that Jude’s wife owned 80% of the company controlling P-Square’s finances, adding that this manipulation was used to distract the public from the real issues.
Concluding his rant, Peter emphasized that his decision to part ways with the group and family business was driven not by greed or ego but by a desire for freedom and truth.
“Family does not steal from family. I disown them. The truth shall prevail,” he declared.
The public fallout marks yet another chapter in the ongoing rift within the Okoye family, once united as Africa’s biggest musical duo, P-Square, before their acrimonious split in 2017.
